(There was a clerical error in the previous text, Tbilisi was written as Warsaw, which has been corrected)

No one could have imagined that the massive Ukrainian strike would end quietly, and on the day Vladimir announced his visit to Warsaw, the mass demonstrations and protests organized in various places dispersed on their own, without the presence of the troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, without the appearance of riot police, the streets became deserted again, the prevailing slogans were thrown all over the place, and the original workers' righteous indignation quickly retreated, as if nothing had happened.

The plot reversal makes people feel very weird, and even a little confusing.

The streets of Tbilisi have returned to their former desertion, and the West's idea of seeing another color revolution in Ukraine end without a hitch, thinking that it could meet the bloody storm of 1989, but it was easily disintegrated by a few words. Those who still think that Vladimir is only climbing up the ranks by Yanayev also understand that the successor of the general secretary is not inferior in political methods to the leader in power.

Only some ambitious people remained, and eventually left the banks of the Dnieper in frustration. They can no longer see the good things between Ukraine and Russia, and those resentments and anger are drifting away, leaving only the river that is as silent as ever flows into the distance, and the conspiracy is buried deep in the riverbed, waiting for the rust and rot of the flowing water.

A few days later, an even more surprising news came from Moscow that the original first secretary of Ukraine was removed from his post and transferred to Moldova. In the face of this "punishment", which was considered a demotion, Shecherbitsky actually gladly accepted the dispatch and willingly went to that desolate and barren land.

As soon as Shecherbitsky's appointment was announced, Yanayev met with another important figure, Lubiyanov, who could influence the political situation in the Soviet Union, at about the same time.

At this time, the head of the organization department had a very complicated mood, and before the news of Shecherbitsky's transfer came out, the other party had privately approached the other party and told him the bad news of the failure.

Faced with a painful defeat, Lukyanov could hardly believe his ears. He thought that Vladimir had only solved a general strike of workers at most, but he didn't expect him to find out the mastermind behind the scenes.

"You guessed it wrong, Comrade Lukyanov, they didn't take the workers' strike seriously at all, and I didn't understand it before, until Vladimir finally appeared at the Southern Machine-Building Plant, and I realized that from the very beginning, they didn't take the chess pieces on the table as a thing, and the targets were all guys hiding behind the scenes."

Lukyanov's heart was instantly tightened.

"Ukraine has failed in general, and now the Central Committee of Moscow may already know who is behind it. Comrade Vladimir will attack you when he returns to Moscow. Do it yourself, Minister Lubyanov. If I were you, I'd stop doing it right away, and if I continued, it would only get deeper and deeper, and in the end...... I don't know how it will end, but I'm not optimistic. ”

"You betrayed us?"

He angrily accused the other party, "If we lose power, your life will not be much better, we are people in the same boat, without conservatives, you will not have a good end!" Wait, Yanayev is merciless in the eradication of traitors. ”

There was silence for a while, and then a reply came from the other end of the phone, "No, I didn't betray you. They have given Ukraine a decent opportunity to withdraw from this war and continue to stir things up, not only me, but the entire Ukrainian government will be renewed. I'm not going to be in the same boat with you anymore, I'm on a different side. ”

Shecherbitsky's rejection was as decisive as his, and now that even Ukraine is not optimistic about their future, the conservatives will be even more struggling.

Speaking of ruthlessness, Rubyanov thinks of the dead adversaries, from Ukraine to the Baltic to Chechnya, who died enough to fill Red Square in the struggle against Yanayev.

He didn't want to be a pinch of loess under the throne high above.

Thinking of this, Lubyanov had a sense of panic on his back, as if a pair of sinister eyes were watching him from behind, revealing sharp fangs when he was not looking. Fear spread deep in his heart, slowly grasping his neck.

"Comrade Lukyanov? You okay? ”

The sudden voice interrupted the musings of the head of the organization, the Mediterranean hairstyle raised his head, and the face that made him hated and hated was appearing in front of him, he could not show his dissatisfaction, at this time the conservatives and Yanayev had not yet torn their faces, although the two sides were in a state of separation, but at least there was cooperation.

He smiled and looked at Yanayev, "Ah, I'm here, where did General Secretary Yanayev just say?" ”

Yanayev, who was sitting directly opposite, smiled and said disapprehantly, "I mean I rarely talk to you in the office, and basically I meet you in important meetings and speeches, and I have only one purpose for the organization department, so I have only one purpose here today." ”

"I wonder what your intentions are?"

Lukyanov frowned, pretending not to understand what Yanayev was saying.

"Heh, you don't have to show that you are confused, there is only me and you here today, in fact, Shecherbitsky was transferred to Moldova as a deputy secretary, instead of directly being tried by the people's court, you can guess the reason, right?"

Lukyanov asked in a low voice, "Because he made a deal with you?" ”

As soon as he said this, he regretted it, and it is clear that he should not have said anything about Ukraine at this time. It seems that he has nothing to do with it.

Yanayev did not shy away from telling the other party the news, "Yes, a deal was made with us. He said a name, and we let him go. It's as simple as that, the name he says is the mastermind behind the scenes, and everything that happens in Ukraine is closely related to him. Even put all the blame on that person, so we let him go, and that's all it. ”

The corners of Lukyanov's mouth twitched, and he said slowly, "So...... Who is the mastermind behind that? ”

"The mastermind behind the scenes......"

Yanayev paused in a deceptive manner, "It's ......"
